The Brightwood Branch opened in 1901 as the sixth public library in Indianapolis. It served the Brightwood community at several locations along Station Street, one street west of its current North Sherman Avenue storefront site which opened in 1972. A 1996 renovation at this location doubled the size of the branch to 5,400 square feet.
Babies, toddlers and preschoolers with an adult are invited for stories, songs, crafts and playtime.
Adults are invited to receive free expert help with a job search or anything else using computers, smartphones or the Internet. Bring your own problems, questions and device.
Enjoy an open space to play video games, card games and board games after school. Some games will be provided, but attendees are free to bring their own. Children under age five require parental supervision.
